Will the FBI ever do something right on The Following? They can’t all be that stupid, can they? — Jason

ADAM: We can’t speak for the whole Bureau, but Kevin Bacon promises that his Ryan Hardy will eventually get a leg up on Joe Carroll. “Because [Joe's] such an intelligent character, we always have this idea that he has to have this master plan that’s bigger and smarter than all of us,” Bacon says. “That’s actually a little bit of a façade. You start to see cracks in the facade and you start to see that he does have vulnerabilities. The minute that happens, [Ryan has] the instinct to know that’s what’s going on. [It makes him] stronger and stronger… and it does get him back on track.”

The Following returns with episode 1×12 The Curse on Monday Apr. 8th, 2013 9/8c on FOX.
